Kids Rule Where?

Kids rule where? I was intrigued as I stumbled upon this slogan so I immediately checked out their website, looked for their location and go there for a shoot.

It is located in the heart of Pasig, Philippines and it’s very easy to find since in a distance you can already see the Big Red Barn. I was excited to go there and I brought along my nephews and my sister. Upon getting there, you will be welcomed with kiddie music in full blast. The place is packed with visually-appealing colors that we, as Lomographers, can’t resist. And to my surprise, there was no entrance fee so you can enjoy the kiddie atmosphere, reminisce on your childhood days while enjoying a hefty serving of ice cream, pizza, and burgers.

However, you have to pay a minimal fee in order to enjoy the arcade, the unending slides, Ferris Wheel, swing rides and the like. Not only can you see a magical frog that leaps and bounds or a whimsical carousel built solely for kids, you’ll also find shops that are child oriented like a mini salon, clothing stores, and arcades.

Parents, fear not for you can also enjoy coffee shops, salons, and spas while letting your child jump up and down in a sea of colorful balls or slide their way down while screaming their lungs out. Also, did I mention that when kids can’t get enough of their “kid power” for a day, they can also rent a place to celebrate their birthdays or any special event that you would like to celebrate. Take a pick between the Big Red Barn, Active Fun, and all the other goodness that this place can offer.

So the next time you get a chance to go to Pasig, bring your kid, your grandma or whoever you want to bring here and experience an atmosphere of happiness and excitement.

A weekend without a lomowalk seems bad, at least for me. One Saturday morning, I decided to join my friends in their lomowalk. It was all cloudy at first but it didn't stop me from going out and walking. I brought my new Nikon FM2 and some expired rolls, just to test my camera. Was it just me being sleepy, or was my Nikon FM2 acting up? My photos turned out grainy, pale, and, in my opinion, looking so 1990s?

“Let me tell you about my life turning blue”. Those were the first words the guy on the bench said as he sat down beside me whilst I was eating my lunch.

It was the Amazon which I had longed for my whole life. And when it was finally a set deal that I will travel to Brazil with two of my best friends for the Copa do Mundo (World Cup), we really had to start our adventure in the Amazon. I had known about this magical place deep in the rainforest. There was a lodge run by local people of indigenous background, with wooden houses that float on the water and a limited number of visitors. It was eco-tourism as how it should be. To preserve and to celebrate one of the most impressive locations I have seen so far.

There are quite a few perks that come with working for a film photography company, and the best perk of all is testing out the latest cameras.

In my early adolescence, I liked to play table football. For my 12th birthday, my parents gifted me with a wonderful Subbuteo table soccer game set that I had wished for many months! This was my favorite toy until I discovered other interesting hobbies, like ham radio and electronics. So after some years, I gave away this game to other kids. I always remembered this game with pleasure and a hint of nostalgia.
